1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Intersectin 1 (ITSN1) contains two isoforms: ITSN1-S and ITSN1-L, which are highly regulated by alternative splicing. Our previous results showed that the two isoforms of ITSN1 displayed opposite functions: ITSN1-S promoted glioma development, while ITSN1-L exerted an inhibitory role in glioma progression. In this study, our transcriptome analysis using a large glioma cohort indicated that the ratio of ITSN1-S/ITSN1-L was positively correlated with glioma grading and poor prognosis. We identified the RNA-binding protein polypyrimidine tract-binding protein 1 (PTBP1) as an ITSN1 pre-mRNA interaction protein through RNA pull-down assay and RNA immunoprecipitation assay. Knockdown of PTBP1 decreased the ratio of ITSN1-S/ITSN1-L. Minigene reporter assay and mutation analyses further confirmed PTBP1 targeted polypyrimidine sequences on ITSN1 exon 30 (TTGCACTTCAGTATTTT) and promoted the inclusion of ITSN1 exon 30. Subsequently, silencing PTBP1 inhibited glioma cell proliferation, migration, and invasion by down-regulating the ratio of ITSN1-S/ITSN1-L. Taken together, our study provides a novel mechanism that PTBP1 modulates the alternative splicing of ITSN1 and promotes glioma proliferation and motility by up-regulating the ratio of ITSN1-S/ITSN1-L, thereby highlighting that PTBP1 may be an attractive therapeutic target for gliomas.
